    Michael,

    Excellent shape on the hf. Ditto what Steve said. The finial height looks ok. Suggest you make another "practice" finial with same overall design but make the "bulb" diameter smaller and...

    Another interesting piece Michelle. The possibilities are endless. Might be fun to do some side views and play with lighting to see what sort of shadow effects you could create.

    That's a beauty Mark. What finish on the palm? Height of the finial is about right just as it is. Might want to do one with a slightly more delicate look just for comparison.

    Thanks Allen. There are no flats on the curves, and/but agree that the left one is definitely funky in some respects. Guess I better just call them "pear wood turnings".

    Moshe,

    Assuming you had a suitable 220V foot switch, seems like it would be very inconvenient to keep your foot on it while turning. A lathe-mounted switch near the tailstock end might be a lot...

    The Sorby "V" is shallower than the DT. I used to think is was a "U". The BB "V"'s that I have are much sharper/deeper than the DT, and harder for me to control. I use the nominal swept back grind...

    Dave, that 42" sure makes a handy place to park the tailstock out of the way when not needed.

    Thanks David. I finally got that it takes the swivel parts but not the entire swivel tool bit holder. That's what I was missing. Wish I had a few spare $$. I would add one more to your order.

    David, can you post a link to a picture of the swan neck bar with the threaded hole in the end please. It sounds like the one you want would be an excellent addition to the articulated rig.
